Historical NotesPrint of Panther Hollow in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, by Barbara Boyd Carter. Part of a collection of artwork by Barbara Boyd Carter when she was an art student at Carnegie Tech and thereafter. Carter graduated in 1954 with a BFA in Pictorial Design. Growing up in Flemington, New Jersey, to a family of three generations of house painters, houses were lifelong subject matter for her, prompted by a college study project of derelict houses in the Oakland neighborhood of Pittsburgh.
